Back in September, my husband + I had the honor of attending our good friends’ wedding in Costa Rica (“good friends” is an understatement). A group of about 35 friends and family made the trek down south and enjoyed a 5 night stay in Playa Ocotal, in a lovely villa. A villa that we had all to ourselves. A villa with an open bar, a breathtaking view, and a pool 10 feet outside our door. It was amazing to say the least. We felt so lucky to be a part of their big day and relax with them throughout the week. Chris was in the wedding I photographed the event (which I’m still having a hard time believing that I can do). We were in Costa Rica during the green season but somehow dodged the rain for almost the entire trip. It was a little nerve-racking to watch storm clouds roll in on their wedding day but somehow they rolled right back out to sea.

Their beachside reveal before the ceremony was possibly the sweetest thing I’ve ever witnessed. I had to hold back the tears behind the camera.

To say the day was perfect may sound a bit cliché but it’s just the truth. The love these two have for each other is so clearly evident. See for yourselves.
